When it arrived, it was mostly yellow, but over time the color just kept getting richer and richer. This year, it has turned into a really saturated orange, which I think is pretty unusual for Spath.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRecently, I’ve been really happy to find out that there are quite a few people who love Spath as much as I do. A few people who bought frags asked me what the mother colony looks like, and that’s when I realized I’ve actually never shared it before.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shape and placement of the colony make it pretty hard to photograph, so I kept putting it off.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo… today is the day.
